    A bunch of the alt-right people, facists, and QAnon nutjubs moved over there when their communities got nuked on reddit.

      Do you think that’s going to happen here? The community makes the platform but I used to like Reddit back in the wild west days before everything was so censored. It was up to me if I wanted to consume some content - and while I largely chose to avoid certain things, I felt like it was my choice. A great example was the r/toosoon sub that got banned for it’s morbid humor when some celebrity died. Sure it was in bad taste but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t exist

        Do I think those people will move in? No, I don’t. Apparently some had already tried and they got stamped out pretty quickly.

        There’s a pretty strong Marxist/Leninist/far-left community on here as well, so that helps. They can be insufferable themselves (mostly just the authoritarian pro-Putin ones), but as long as it’s not facist bullshit I can deal.
